The Wellcome Trust Medical Journals Backfiles Digitization Project
Medical Journals Backfiles Digitization Project
Overview
The Wellcome Trust, in partnership with the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC), and the National Library of Medicine (NLM) are working together on a project to digitize the complete backfiles of a number of important and historically significant medical journals. The digitized content will be made freely available on the Internet – via PubMed Central – and augment the content already available there. The Wellcome Library exists as a resource to provide access to the documentary record of medicine. This project is one way of translating that vision into the digital age.
The project will commence in Spring 2004 and we anticipate that all the journals we plan to digitize will be available online by Spring 2006. However, as journals are digitized they will be made available, so we predict that the first few titles digitized under this project will be online early in 2005.
To learn more about this project see the accompanying FAQ page, the press release and list of participating journals to include.....
Annals of Surgery
Biochemical Journal
Journal of Physiology
Medical History

Mood and anxiety disorders are common, severe, chronic, and often life-threatening illnesses (Kaufman and Charney, 2000; Manji et al., 2001). There is a growing appreciation that, far from being diseases with purely psychological manifestations, severe mood and anxiety disorders are systemic diseases with deleterious effects on multiple organ systems. Indeed, a World Health Organization study has reported that depression is the leading global cause of years of life lived with a disability and the fourth leading cause of disability-adjusted life-years. Stressful life events have a substantial causal association with these disorders, and there is now compelling evidence that even early life stress constitutes a major risk factor for the subsequent development of depression (Charney and Manji, In Press). The emerging evidence suggests that the combination of genetics, early life stress, and ongoing stress may ultimately determine individual responsiveness to stress and the vulnerability to psychiatric disorders, such as mood and anxiety disorders.

CROSSREF and ATYPON announce forward linking service
LYNNFIELD, MA – June 8, 2004. CrossRef, the cross-publisher reference linking service, and technology partner Atypon announced today the launch of CrossRef’s new Forward Linking service.
In addition to using CrossRef to create outbound links from their references, CrossRef member publishers can now retrieve “cited-by” links -- links to other articles that cite their content. This new service is being offered as an optional tool to allow CrossRef members to display cited-by links in the primary content that they publish.
According to Ed Pentz, CrossRef’s Executive Director, "Forward Linking is a natural extension of the CrossRef linking network and will provide a better online reading environment for researchers and scholars." Several publishers, including John Wiley & Sons, the American Physical Society, Blackwell Publishing, Annual Reviews, Institute of Physics Publishing, and the American Geophysical Union, have stated that they will participate and will complete their implementations of the new service later this year.
As part of the same functionality powered by Atypon, CrossRef is also offering a new Forward-Match feature that eliminates the need for users to query CrossRef repeatedly for citations that do not initially return a match. When a query is marked to enable alerts, the CrossRef system automatically sends an email containing the matched results once the relevant content gets registered in CrossRef.
Georgios Papadopoulos, President of Atypon, states: "Forward Matching offers online publishers truly dynamic linking. Publishing systems can now retrieve the latest linking information directly from CrossRef as soon as the information is available.”
Forward Linking and Forward Matching represent a major upgrade to CrossRef’s scientific and scholarly linking network. With these developments, CrossRef publishers now have access to full citation chains and truly dynamic citation linking, better enabling researchers to cross system boundaries as they navigate the research literature online.
Atypon is a leading software and services provider for the STM/scholarly information community, providing business-to-business solutions designed to help publishing companies leverage the Internet. Find out more at www.atypon.com.
CrossRef, which was established by scholarly publishers as an independent, non-profit entity in 2000, uses open standards. It is an official registration agency of the International DOI Foundation (IDF), and is the first full-scale implementation of the DOI system. More information is available at www.crossref.org.
CrossRef is an independent membership association, founded and directed by publishers. Its mission is to improve access to published scholarship through collaborative technologies. CrossRef operates a cross-publisher citation linking system, and is an official DOI (Digital Object Identifier) registration agency. More information is available at http://www.crossref.org.

Directory of Open Access Journals
June 3rd 2004
For immediate release:
LUND UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES LAUNCHES PHASE 2 Of THE DIRECTORY OF OPEN ACCESS
JOURNALS - NOW WITH ARTICLE LEVEL SEARCH
Lund, Sweden - Lund University Libraries today launches the phase 2 of the
Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ, http://www.doaj.org). The new
version of DOAJ now includes records at article level and a search
functionality allowing users to search articles in potentially all Open
Access Journals.
The directory now contains information about more than 1100 open access
journals, i.e. quality controlled scientific and scholarly electronic
journals that are freely available on the web. As of today 270 of the 1100
journals are searchable on article level and both numbers are growing.
Researchers can now search almost 46.000 articles through the Directory of
Open Access Journals and be sure to get access to the articles.
"As a dynamic inventory of open-access journals, DOAJ has already
succeeded in demonstrating the broad and growing adoption of open access
and has enabled libraries to systematically present open-access journals
to their users," said Rick Johnson, director of SPARC. "Now, by adding
article-level records, DOAJ is taking an important next step that will
further expand use of articles published in open-access journals. SPARC is
proud to support this ground-breaking work."
"The DOAJ provides a platform for open access journals to gain greater
visibility and thereby increase their readership" said Melissa Hagemann,
Program Manager, Open Society Institute. Libraries throughout the world
have thus far been able to add 1,100 peer-reviewed titles to their
collections, and no where is this more important than to libraries in the
developing world, where access to journals is limited due to the high cost
of most titles. With today's launch of phase 2 of the Directory,
researchers will now be able to search, and have direct access to, the
thousands of articles included within the DOAJ. OSI is pleased to partner
w/Lund University Libraries and SPARC on this innovative project."
"With this new article level search functionality we have created an
incentive for owners of Open Access journals to submit article level data
to the DOAJ in order to further increase the visibility, reputation and
impact of their journals", said Lotte Jorgensen, Project Coordinator for
the DOAJ.
The goal of the Directory of Open Access Journals is to increase the
visibility and accessibility of open access scholarly journals, thereby
promoting their increased usage and impact. The directory aims to
comprehensively cover all open access scholarly journals that use an
appropriate quality control system.
The DOAJ is funded by the Information Program of the Open Society
Institute (http://www.osi.hu/infoprogram/) and Lund University Libraries,
and supported by SPARC (The Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources
Coalition, (http://www.arl.org/sparc) and BIBSAM (the Royal Library of
Sweden).
Information about how to obtain DOAJ records for use in a library
catalogue or other service you will find at:
http://www.doaj.org/articles/questions#metadata.
The database records are freely available for reuse in other services
and can be harvested by using the OAI-PMH
(http://www.openarchives.org/), thus further increasing the visibility
of the journals. The article level records will be available for
harvesting within 2 months.
